i believe they work good in most situations although we mostly used them mixed in with our Canada spread. this worked well. i dont know how they would be alone. i have never heard anything that bad. we also try to put are ducks far into the ground because the stakes are long, however we have discussed cutting them shorter. they definitely add motion which is a plus. i never used them on a calm day either which may change things but i have hunted over the deadly snows with no wind and they still look pretty good, so i guess it is up to you. also the feeder heads are a pain in the ass because they come off the decoy easily, but they dont break so a little super glue helps keep them on.

I've never really found a cheaper place to buy DD, except for the one time Cabelas had some snows in the bargain cave. I would just buy them straight from the website. The CS is great, UPS lost track of our shipment, so the guys from DD sent us a second shipment 3-day so we would have them for our trip. Unfortunately, the first shipment showed on time, I wish I could have afforded to buy the second. They have a really good product, a little spendy, but I think its worth it.

I want to hear the good and the bad.

My hunting buddy pick up 4dz at a sale the guy was asking 25 bucks for them. He call me and ask if i thought they were any good . He had never seen them i had just looked at them on the web site .I told him to buy them he gave him 20 bucks for the 4dz. Most of them were never uesd may be hot how knows. We used them this season in corn fields work good they had the old clips on them. Replace them with small rubber gas line . And glue on all the heads they are all the up right ones Like 4dz for 20 bucks what was this guy thinken My butty said he had some outher duck hunting stuff there to. Just seams funny to me to sell them for that little God IS GREAT BEER IS GOOD AND PEOPLE ARE WHAT
